Clariant Sanodure Bronze G Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for Sanodure Bronze G Pigment?

A: Sanodure Bronze G Pigment is specifically developed for decorative and functional metallic effect applications in water-based and solvent-based industrial coatings, including automotive refinish, plastic coatings, and general-purpose protective finishes where a warm, copper-toned bronze appearance is desired.


Q2: Is Sanodure Bronze G compatible with acid-catalyzed or high-solids coating systems?

A: Yes, Sanodure Bronze G exhibits good stability in moderately acidic environments and is suitable for use in many conventional crosslinking systems, including melamine- and urethane-cured formulations. However, prolonged exposure to strongly acidic conditions or highly reactive curing agents may affect metallic integrity and should be evaluated during formulation development.


Q3: How should Sanodure Bronze G be dispersed to achieve optimal orientation and color consistency?

A: Optimal performance requires gentle yet thorough dispersion using low-shear mixing equipment—such as dissolvers or planetary mixers—to avoid damaging the delicate flake structure. Pre-wetting with compatible solvents or resin solutions prior to incorporation is recommended to ensure uniform distribution and maximize metallic effect.


Q4: Can Sanodure Bronze G be used in UV-curable systems?

A: Sanodure Bronze G can be incorporated into many UV-curable coating formulations, but compatibility must be verified case by case due to potential interactions with photoinitiators and radical species generated during curing. Pilot-scale testing is advised to assess color stability, dispersion retention, and film integrity post-cure.
